That seems like a valid addition for boost.mpl to me, but in this case I was more thinking of something having effect on boost.proto only, in the spirit of e.g. BOOST_MULTI_INDEX_ENABLE_SAFE_MODE, whereas using BOOST_MPL_DISABLE_ASSERTS would probably have a broader impact.
Also I think Eric would want not to have expensive checks enabled by default, so BOOST_MPL_DISABLE_ASSERTS will not be very useful for this case even if/when it is added, IMHO.
